A guiding star

What would you leave home for?

What would make you
abandon your possessions
leave family behind
travel into unknown lands
journey for days on end
never knowing where or when
the next meal will be?

What would entice you
to move out of your comfort zone
drop everything familiar and safe?

Only the promise of something greater
something more real
more truthful.

On this crisp winter’s night
the stars are calling
calling, calling.

Which star will you follow?
